Case: Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
Attorney: Nicole A. Kettwick
Result: Nicole’s client was charged with Petty Misdemeanor Possession of Drug Paraphernalia after items were found in the car she was riding as a passenger in. Nicole requested a hearing to fight this charge. Nicole negotiated with the prosecutor and he agreed to a disposition called a continuance for dismissal. They entered this agreement on the record to the Court at Nicole’s client’s arraignment hearing and the Court accepted it. If Nicole’s client complies with the conditions of the agreement, after 1 year the charges will be automatically dismissed. Nicole accomplished her client’s goals of keeping a conviction of a drug-related offense off her record and avoiding the admission of any wrongdoing.
